You've got to be very desperate for clicks to spread this around hours before the game's reveal. Zero respect.

annoyedgamer1418d ago

This isnt a leak, EA "leaks" stuff and calls it news before every major game reveal. Normally Id say its a stupid business move because its so obvious the trick they are playing but it appears I was wrong.

seanpitt231418d ago

What would make it good is bullet damage - for eg if you get blown up legs and arms fly everywhere you cannot get revived by medic, but if you only get shot by small arms fire and get downed you still can get revived by teammates etc… I just hope it’s not like battlefield 5 mechanics they went backwards compared to battlefield 1

DJStotty1418d ago

"Leaked" by EA's Origin store.

So, not a leak then?

EazyC1418d ago

Is that the actor Shea Whigham on the cover art? Looks a lot like him.

RosweeSon1418d ago

https://www.gamesradar.com/... Yeah they can’t afford to spare the resources for a 6-8 hour campaign. 😑🥴🤣 it’s a no wEAy from me

moriarty18891418d ago

lazy ass devs. $70 for an incomplete game.....becoming a trend. hard pass.

RosweeSon1418d ago (Edited 1418d ago )

Moriarty1889 cannot agree more. Just pure laziness and shamefully people will still Lap it up. Just play 5 wait for 7 and get 6 for free in 6-12 months thank me later, or just don’t 🤷🏻‍♂️😑 🤣 they could easily have hired a few more
Devs or pooled resources they got how many devs under the EA umbrella just laziness and typical EA greed expects full price gives another have ass yearly churned game, nah
Thing that annoys me most they still advertise and show off their games with all these screenshots from cutscenes that isn’t the game. It’s exactly the same with Fifa every year show close ups of the players looking incredibly detailed get the game its looks exactly same as last year as the camera is panned out so basically looks nothing like that make it out too.

Wow, another site writing entire articles based off a single reddit comment.

pwnmaster3000203d ago

Just redownloaded the game. I wonder if it is still active

Steve_Gamer203d ago

Yeah it will be, the game just recently got a Update 1.59 Patch in September.

Vince Zampella: Battlefield "Absolutely Can" Outsell Call of Duty; BF2042 Was Not a "Failure"

Battlefield franchise boss thinks Battlefield "absolutely can" outsell Call of Duty, but says they're not targeting that with the next entry.

TheNamelessOne222d ago

Feel like if that were true, we would have seen it during the BF3/4 era. Just focus first on releasing a Battlefield that's actually feature complete, well put together, that people actually want to play right out of the gate. Hoping Zampella can make this happen.

JEECE222d ago

The best opportunity was BF1 vs. Infinite Warfare. I've never actually seen a worldwide sales comparison so I'm not convinced BF1 didn't eventually win, but I do know COD sold better in the US at launch, because it was the NPD #1 that year, while BF was #2.

SonyStyled222d ago

The best opportunity was with BC2 and BF3. BF4 dropped the ball with a short campaign and bugged multiplayer at launch

Cacabunga222d ago

Release a decent game and let the mouth to eat do the rest.. you choose to release another BF4 then blame yourselves for it

JEECE221d ago

@SonyStyled

Definitely not BC2. I love the Bad Company games (even though everyone always pretends the first one didn't exist), but even though BC2 has achieved great respect in hindsight, at the time it came out a lot of casuals who bought COD every year either didn't know of Battlefield's existence or saw it as a knockoff of COD. Plus coming out in spring 2010 it was competing against MW2 (the original one) which came out the prior fall.

ChronoJoe222d ago

I mean, the title of the game doesn't have a lot to do with how it sells. The next game is not going to change things but Zampella course change the course of the series towards something that's more on track with that those big player numbers.

With that said, battlefield fans might not want that. To acquire the wider audience they would probably need to betray a lot of the series design principles. Call of Duty is as popular as it is because it is as simple as it is.

"BF2042 Was Not a "Failure"

Suuuuuuure thing little buddy...

excaliburps222d ago

In his defense, BF2042 did turn things around eventually though still falls short of franchise expectations if you based it on BF4, BF3, BF1.

trez1082222d ago

Hated it at lunch, came back a two years after and it was an absolute blast. Not sure how it did sales wise to be called failure or success but BF2042 is a pretty good game .

ElaBosak221d ago

In what way was it a failure exactly?

Outside_ofthe_Box222d ago

Microsoft would just buy EA if that happens.

8bitAssassin222d ago (Edited 222d ago )

We don't need more games ruined. It's like that company puts water on their bread before they eat it.

Inverno222d ago

Here we go again with rubbing mouths. BF has been a flop consistently since BF4, and I mean flop as in disappointing to the fan base due to the technical issues each has had and the gameplay changes needlessly made. Shut up and make a good BF before hyping up another potential disappointment.

Fishy Fingers222d ago (Edited 222d ago )

Bro gave one pretty decent interview and answered the questions he was asked. Not really his fault if people want to cherry pick quotes for "content".

Stick to reading source https://www.ign.com/article...

X-23222d ago

I don't mind them claiming BF2042 wasn't a failure so long as they learned from it and use that experience moving forward into the new game, it was terrible at launch but towards the end it got a bit better. I don't want to see the same thing play out with the new BF though because the ones who are still interested in the franchise have been pretty vocal with what they want and don't want from Battlefield.

ElaBosak221d ago

Learn what exactly? The game was great.
